Evarcha bicuspidata

Evarcha bicuspidata is a jumping spider found only in Vietnam. It is closely related to E. hunanensis from China.

The spider is 3.6 mm long. Males are dark brown, with a darker area around the eyes. They are covered with dark brown and white hairs. Two pairs of yellowish brown transverse bands are seen on the thoracic area. The legs are dark brown with yellowish brown rings.

Name

The species name is derived from Latin, bi "two" and cuspidata "sharp ended", referring to the two-pronged tibial apophysis.
